When I'm Gone

歌词
Yeah...
对...
It's my life...
这就我半辈子....
My own words I guess...
估计也就我这点故事...
你可曾爱一个人爱到付出整只手臂【女儿的纹身占了Em整支右臂,也指Em为家庭的生活打拼】
Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?
不是措辞,并非嘴上说说而已
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
要是她们知道自己烙在你心底
When they know they're your heart
你明白自己是守护她们的坚壁
And you know you were their armour
你肯定会摧毁一切伤害她们的人和事情
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm her
可到头来你只是白费力气,善不得善报怎么办?
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you?
你心爱的一切都对你报以憎恨,你该怎样?
And everything you stand for, turns on you to spite you?
当你成为了痛苦的源泉,你又会怎么想?
What happens when you become the main source of her pain?
“爹地,看看我做了什么东西”,爸爸要急着赶飞机【飞机指的是Em的说唱事业,歌后半部分有提及】
“爹地,妈咪在哪里?我找不到她在哪里”
"Daddy look what I made", Dad's gotta go catch a plane
我真不知道 Hailie,宝贝,爹地忙得不行
"Daddy where's Mommy? I can't find Mommy where is she?"
爹地要写歌,歌词不会无缘无故自己出现在纸里【Mv里唱到这部分时歌词就自己出现在了纸上】
I don't know go play Hailie, baby, your Daddy's busy
我给你拉一下秋千,然后你自个荡着玩去吧
Daddy's writing a song, this song ain't gonna write itself
然后转过身在歌里告诉她你有多爱她
I'll give you one underdog then you gotta swing by yourself
对和她长得一个模样的母亲拳掌相对
Then turn right around in that song and tell her you love her
那可是Slim Shady,没错宝贝, Slim Shady疯了吧【Em曾与Kim争吵甚至动手,Em对女儿说那不是自己想这样做的】
And put hands on her mother, who's a spitting image of her
是Shady逼我的,可今晚的Shady肯定会安定在家里...
That's Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady's crazy
要是我离开了也得坚强,别悲伤【这段是Em直接对女儿说的,他说到要是自己去世或者没法陪她也不要伤心,希望她听到自己的歌能开心点】
Shady made me, but tonight Shady's rocka-by-baby...
每次听到我的声音都要开心起来
要知道,我就在天上望着你笑容
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
我没有难受,所以宝贝别觉得难过
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
回以笑容就好
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
要是我离开了也得坚强,别悲伤
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
每次听到我的声音都要开心起来
Just smile back
要知道,我就在天上望着你笑容
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
我没有难受,所以宝贝别觉得难过
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
回以笑容就好...
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
每晚都做着同样的梦:我推着海莉荡在秋千上
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
她声嘶力竭,不想我再继续搞说唱
Just smile back...
你让妈咪哭了,为什么妈妈流泪不断?
宝贝,爹地不会离开你了,“爹地你在撒谎!”
I keep having this dream, I'm pushin' Hailie on the swing
“你总是这样说,你一直都说这是最后一次”
She keeps screaming, she don't want me to sing
“可你还是一走了之,你就这么自私!”
"You're making Mommy cry, why? Why is Mommy crying?"
她为了不让我出去在门口前堆了箱子
Baby, Daddy ain't leaving no more, "Daddy you're lying
“爹地求你了,别离开了,就留下来陪我一次!”
"You always say that, you always say this is the last time
说着在她口袋里拉出一条小项链坠子
"But you ain't leaving no more, Daddy you're mine"
里面有张照片,“爹地带上这个,它能保你平安无事”
She's piling boxes in front of the door trying to block it
抬头一看,却只是自己面对着镜子【Mv里的Em到了镜子里的梦境,Em也化身为了Shady】
"Daddy please, Daddy don't leave, Daddy - no stop it!"
这些该死的墙肯定在说话,因为我听得一清二楚
Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
它们说:“你本来有多一次机会改回错误 - 就今晚将它结束”
It's got a picture, "this'll keep you safe Daddy, take it withcha'"
趁现在就出去告诉她们你有多爱她们
I look up, it's just me standing in the mirror
而正当我走出了房门
These fuckin' walls must be talking, cuz man I can hear 'em
眼前变成了舞台,她们已不在,聚光灯被打开
They're saying "You've got one more chance to do right" - and it's tonight
我开始唱了起来...
Now go out there and show that you love 'em before it's too late
要是我离开了也得坚强,别悲伤
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
每次听到我的声音都要开心起来
It turns to a stage, they're gone, and this spotlight is on
要知道,我就在天上望着你笑容
And I'm singing...
我没有难受,所以宝贝别觉得难过
回以笑容就好
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
要是我离开了也得坚强,别悲伤
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
每次听到我的声音都要开心起来
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
要知道,我就在天上望着你笑容
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
我没有难受,所以宝贝别觉得难过
Just smile back
回以笑容就好...
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
六万名观众,全从座位上跳起
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
帷幕渐渐关闭,他们抛出玫瑰到我脚底【这个场面为专辑《Curtain Call》的封面】
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
我鞠了一躬:谢谢你们赏面来到【这个场面为专辑《Encore》的封面】
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
台下非常热闹,我目光向台下一扫
Just smile back...
简直无法相信我看到了什么东西
“爹地,是我,帮帮妈咪!她手腕的血流得不停”【Em一次在演唱会上唱了《Kim》,当时Kim就在演唱会上,事后的Kim尝试割腕自杀】
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
可是宝贝我们这是在瑞典,你怎么可能来得到这里?
The curtain closes, they're throwing roses at my feet
“我跟着你来的爹地,你说过你不会离开”
I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
“你骗了我,爸爸,现在你还让妈咪伤心”
They're screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
“我给你带来了这枚银币,上面写着‘爸爸永远第一’”
I glance down, I don't believe what I'm seeing
“就这样而已,我只是想把这银币交给你”
"Daddy it's me, help Mommy, her wrists are bleeding,"
“我也懂 - 算罢,反正我和妈妈就要走了”
But baby we're in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
但是宝贝等下,“太晚了 爸爸,你作了选择”
"I followed you Daddy, you told me that you weren't leavin'
“现在就出去告诉那些粉丝你爱他们多过我们”【这里的em是them的缩写,也指的是Em的粉丝em】
"You lied to me Dad, and now you make Mommy sad
正和他们心意,Marshall,只有他们才会喜欢你的大名【歌里Hailie对Em的称呼从Daddy到Dad再到Marshall,指明父女之间关系的疏远】
"And I bought you this coin, it says 'Number One Dad'
难怪会你兴奋地睡不着,只管嗑多颗安眠药【Em曾因失眠服用甚至滥用安眠药】
"That's all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin
你肯定会这样做,就继续摧残你的家庭生活
"I get the point - fine, me and Mommy are going"
听见掌声未落,此时的我却茫然失措
But baby wait, "it's too late Dad, you made the choice
怎么会这样,帷幕怎么会向我关上
"Now go out there and show 'em that you love 'em more than us"
我转过身,在地上找到一把枪,上了膛
That's what they want, they want you Marshall, they keep.. screamin' your name
抵在脑袋上喊“去死吧Shady” 然后扣动扳机【指Em想杀掉Shady,Shady算是Em的另一面,Mv里这时打破了镜子里的Shady】
It's no wonder you can't go to sleep, just take another pill
天色变得黯淡,记忆在脑袋里回闪,我本来要坐的飞机坠得稀巴烂【前文提到的飞机指Em的事业,这里说到Em想过放弃说唱生涯】
Yeah, I bet you will. You rap about it, yeah, word, k-keep it real
这时的我从梦里醒了,闹钟响着,小鸟鸣叫着
I hear applause, all this time I couldn't see
正值春天,Hailie在外面荡着秋千,我走向Kim亲吻了她的脸【本歌有3处提及Hailie荡秋千】
How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me
倾诉自己的想念,Hailie笑对她的妹妹眨了眨眼【妹妹指的是Kim与另个男人再婚生下的女孩Whitney,后由Em领养】
I turn around, find a gun on the ground, cock it
好像在说...
Put it to my brain and scream "die Shady" and pop it
要是我离开了也得坚强,别悲伤
The sky darkens, my life flashes, the plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes
每次听到我的声音都要开心起来
That's when I wake up, alarm clock's ringin', there's birds singin'
要知道,我就在天上望着你笑容
It's Spring and Hailie's outside swinging, I walk right up to Kim and kiss her
我没有难受,所以宝贝别觉得难过
Tell her I miss her, Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister
回以笑容就好
Almost as if to say..
要是我离开了也得坚强,别悲伤
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
每次听到我的声音都要开心起来
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
要知道,我就在天上望着你笑容
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
我没有难受,所以宝贝别觉得难过
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
回以笑容就好...
Just smile back
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel no pain
Just smile back...
